Dear Harry (Dyer), 2026 SM Society, Microsoft CMT & AoIR colleagues,
Greetings from World University and School, building on MIT OCW in its ~7
languages (https://opencw.aprende.org/courses/translated-courses/), and
from near Berkeley and Stanford.
I've received 2 notices from the Microsoft CMT (Content Management Team) in
Redmond, Washington, and most recently to my
president at worlduniversityandschool.org email address, that we would hear
results about our extended abstracts, and regarding at the University of
Glasgow in mid July, that, after a 5 day delay, we would hear back today,
but I haven't heard anything yet; please advise. And should I be getting a
new US passport soon? (It was stolen some years ago in Canyon CA 94516).
Thank you. And here again is my 1000-1500 word abstract -

.
Thanks,
Scott

Dear Gordon K MacLeod,
Thank-you for your submission to the 2026 International Conference on
Social Media & Society . We had planned to send out paper
notifications to you today. However, there are still some outstanding
reviews and we did not plan quite enough time to manage this. We will
need a few more days to manage this process. We are working hard to
sort these and to minimize your wait for the outcomes. We will now
send out notifications to you on Friday March 6th.
We apologize for any inconvenience and thank-you for your patience.
Most sincerely,
The Social Media and Society Team
